The Ocean State...check!

On a beautiful summer morning, we headed out for a day long adventure in the Ocean State!

Behold, the Swamp Meadow Covered Bridge!  And that is it for the official covered bridges in Rhode Island.  Good night, folks!

Just kidding, the adventure doesn't end there.  

The Swamp Meadow has a list of rates of toll.  You have to love a good list of rates!

I wish these tolls were still in place, complete with someone checking a Pleasure Wagon for a horse, Jack, or Mule.

The view off the Swap Meadow.



Check out this truss system!

The sun shines brightly on the Swamp Meadow.

If you look carefully you can see our chaperone taking pictures on the side of the Swamp Meadow.  

How about a covered bridge pose?

Mother daughter shot!

Covered selfie!




The Swamp Meadow is nestled in the woods of Foster, Rhode Island.  No swamps insight here!

What's a day in Rhode Island without visiting the Newport Mansions?

I'm pretty sure I have been on this tour before.  Turns out right tour, wrong mansion!  This mansion reminds me a lot of my summer home.


This blogger, just got a promotion!

One more stop along the way.  The Judith Point Lighthouse, I like to think that it was named after the beloved "Who's the Boss" actress.  Sadly, there was nothing there to prove this theory.

Well, Rhode Island, for such a tiny state, you sure have a lot to offer.  We thoroughly enjoyed our Ocean State Adventure!
